[00:07] ---
    Let's go to the field
    of sea with the tailwind
[00:13] ---
    Raise the sails high up in the sky
[00:19] ---
    We're adventurers
    who have the same hearts
[00:32] ---
    Much faster and at full speed
[00:38] ---
    I will manage to catch any waves
[00:44] ---
    Go over the clouds and go under
    the rainbow, our world will be there
[00:56] ---
    Yahoo! Let's give a cheer and go!
[01:03] ---
    To far and away
[01:09] ---
    Yahoo! We will just stay on this road
    that leads to what's beyond this sea
[01:31] ---
    Gotcha!
[01:36] ---
    It's over.
[01:53] ---
    What?
[01:56] ---
    I'm not going down until you leave!
[02:01] ---
    Just like you have your pride...
[02:04] ---
    ...I have my principles!
[02:08] ---
    What's up with this guy?
[02:15] ---
    So you just refuse to
    attack me no matter what, huh?
[02:18] ---
    Is it because I'm a woman?
[02:19] ---
    That's right. I will not
    raise a hand against a woman!
[02:22] ---
    Aww! You're a pain in the ass!
    I'll let you go, so let me pass!
[02:27] ---
    I refuse that, too!
[02:28] ---
    I will not let you pass
    until Miu-san's play is over,
[02:30] ---
    even if I have to die!
[02:38] ---
    Do you like that cow tits?
[02:42] ---
    N-No! It's not like I love her or I
    want to date her or anything like that!
[02:46] ---
    It's more like I have a little crush
    on her and I just look up to her...
[02:51] ---
    --Oh, that was cold.
    --Oh, that was cold.
[02:55] ---
    Jeez! Dealing with this guy always
    throws me off! Let's get out of here!
[03:00] ---
    What? Are you sure? I thought
    you were going to destroy Furinji.
[03:04] ---
    This guy's pure idiocy made
    me lose the desire to fight her!
[03:10] ---
    So, that kid...
    Kenichi Shirahama, was it?
[03:14] ---
    Yes.
[03:15] ---
    He's in Class 1-E of our school.
[03:18] ---
    Oh, boy...
[03:24] ---
    I have a special alien power
    that allows me to melt into the wall
[03:27] ---
    and leave no trace of myself.
[03:31] ---
    Kenichi Shirahama, huh?
    He's a funny kid.
[03:35] ---
    I guess I've managed to
    drive her away somehow...
[03:37] ---
    It's the play that Miu-san
    has been looking forward to.
[03:39] ---
    I'd never let her ruin it!
[03:41] ---
    But it also means that
    I've saved the kissing scene
[03:44] ---
    for Miu-san and Tanimoto-kun...
[03:47] ---
    What am I doing?
[03:50] ---
    What would I do if she really hooked up
    with Tanimoto-kun because of this?!
[03:55] ---
    H-He's a clown! That's a real clown!
[04:02] ---
    O Romeo!
[04:02] ---
    "Romeo and Juliet"
[04:09] ---
    I come to you.
[04:23] ---
    Magnificent!
[04:25] ---
    The first year students
    this year are fantastic!
[04:28] ---
    Wanna use this?
[04:30] ---
    Y-You idiot! It's just that
    the spot lights are too bright!
[04:33] ---
    Hey.
[04:34] ---
    Shut up! I'm not crying!
[04:37] ---
    Apachai hasn't come back
    since he went to the bathroom.
[04:43] ---
    What do I do with him?
    Because he's never been to school,
[04:47] ---
    he must've been very curious
    about the unfamiliar surroundings.
[04:49] ---
    He sure can be a pain sometimes.
    I've got a bad feeling about this.
[04:53] ---
    I'll go and look for him.
[04:58] ---
    Who's that?
[04:59] ---
    A pro-wrestler?
[05:00] ---
    Hey, it's a pretty big school.
[05:03] ---
    Well, I should be able to find
    him quickly since he stands out.
[05:07] ---
    Apapapa...
[05:08] ---
    Huh? There he is.
[05:12] ---
    --He's giant!
    --He's so fast!
[05:14] ---
    Go, Apachai! One more
    basket and we're ahead!
[05:18] ---
    Are you sure that helper
    is really your student?
[05:23] ---
    Of course!
    H-He's an exchange student.
[05:25] ---
    Apachai! It's not good!
    We're out of time!
[05:30] ---
    N-No, Apachai!
    That's the opponent's goal!
[05:33] ---
    Apa!!
[05:36] ---
    Aww! My dream for my tiny, weak team
    to win its first practice match...
[05:40] ---
    I-It's over...
[05:42] ---
    Seriously, he can make
    friends with anyone really fast.
[05:45] ---
    Yabadabadoo!
[05:54] ---
    Apa!
[05:55] ---
    C-Come-from-behind win!
[05:56] ---
    Our first victory!
[05:58] ---
    --We did it!
    --You're awesome, Apachai!
    --Who are you exactly?
[06:03] ---
    Hey, Apachai! Let's go back!
[06:06] ---
    --Oh, that's Sakaki!
    --We finally won!
[06:08] ---
    --I have to go now.
    --Stop crying, Captain!
[06:12] ---
    Pretend that you're the ball,
    then you'll get better at your game.
[06:15] ---
    Apachai-san!
[06:17] ---
    Don't worry! I'm sure you
    can win again, even without me!
[06:21] ---
    Okay!
[06:22] ---
    As an aside, after this game,
    the Koryo High School basketball club
[06:26] ---
    became a monster team that competes
    for the national championships.
[06:28] ---
    And the name of
    "the Mysterious Giant Apachai"
[06:31] ---
    was forevermore handed
    down as the team's legend.
[06:38] ---
    It was wonderful, Miu.
[06:40] ---
    I really appreciate
    that everyone came to see it.
[06:43] ---
    Dress... It's nice...
[06:45] ---
    But the fact that my performance went so
    well was because of Tanimoto-san's lead.
[06:51] ---
    Huh? Do you know them, Furinji-san?
[06:54] ---
    Oh, uh, right. They're my relatives.
[06:58] ---
    Great. Nice to meet you. I'm Tanimoto.
[07:00] ---
    You did a wonderful job
    as well, Tanimoto-kun.
[07:03] ---
    Although it was a bit unfortunate.
[07:05] ---
    What?
[07:06] ---
    It would've been a perfect play
    if you didn't hate performing.
[07:10] ---
    Well, it is indeed unfortunate.
[07:14] ---
    Tanimoto-kun! This is for you!
[07:17] ---
    Wow, thanks! These are
    cosmos, aren't they?
[07:20] ---
    My sister loves these flowers.
[07:23] ---
    Well, I guess we should get going.
[07:25] ---
    Okay.
[07:34] ---
    I guess the play is over by now!
[07:37] ---
    Miu-san's gonna hate me
    for this! I'm hopeless!
[07:42] ---
    Why am I always so clumsy?
[08:01] ---
    Wh-Why did you do that?
[08:03] ---
    How could you do
    that to the flowers?
[08:05] ---
    You saw it, huh?
[08:07] ---
    I hate flowers because
    they die quickly.
[08:11] ---
    What's going on? Tanimoto-kun
    seems so different from usual!
[08:15] ---
    I hate acting very much, too.
[08:17] ---
    What? Then why are
    you in the drama club?
[08:20] ---
    Hmph, it's for practice.
    Practice to deceive others.
[08:24] ---
    In the public, I have to play
    the role of an excellent student.
[08:29] ---
    The ability to gain sympathy
    is a part of the kingcraft art.
[08:34] ---
    I'm sure you're like me, too.
[08:35] ---
    It's tiring to play the role
    of the man of justice, isn't it?
[08:39] ---
    Acting is not for you.
[08:41] ---
    But I'm not...
[08:43] ---
    I'm annoyed by the fact that your
    popularity at school has gone up lately.
[08:48] ---
    This school is my test ground.
    Don't mess it up for me.
[08:52] ---
    But it's okay. Your popularity at
    school has already hit the bottom.
[08:57] ---
    And it seems that I have captured
    the heart of the popular Miu Furinji.
[09:02] ---
    What in the world
    are you talking about?
[09:04] ---
    I am being myself! I'm not acting!
[09:06] ---
    Don't lie!
    Everyone's always acting a part!
[09:13] ---
    I don't know what you're
    trying to do, but I am me.
[09:27] ---
    Annoying bastard...
[09:37] ---
    M-Miu-san!
[09:40] ---
    After all the practice I've done,
    you didn't even show up!
[09:43] ---
    So she is mad!
[09:45] ---
    Just like Tanimoto-kun said,
    Miu-san's heart has already been...
[09:50] ---
    I-I'm sorry.
[09:52] ---
    Just joking!
[09:53] ---
    What?
[09:54] ---
    You fought in order to
    save the play, didn't you?
[09:58] ---
    I really appreciate that.
[10:02] ---
    Look at all the scratches!
    Do they hurt at all?
[10:05] ---
    Uh, well...
[10:06] ---
    How did you know about what happened
    between the Ragnarok and me?
[10:10] ---
    Huh? Well...
[10:11] ---
    Niijima-san told me about it.
[10:14] ---
    Oh, boy... I sure have gotten soft.
[10:20] ---
    Anyway, Miu's performance
    was pretty good, huh?
[10:22] ---
    Right, right.
[10:23] ---
    It was too hard for me to understand.
[10:26] ---
    Now we've got Miu's favorite anmitsu.
    Why don't we go home?
[10:34] ---
    Wh-What's up with that
    scary-looking gang?
[10:37] ---
    If they ever set their eyes
    on you, they'll get you.
[10:39] ---
    They'll definitely get you.
[10:45] ---
    Hey, that's Kenichi and Miu!
[10:49] ---
    What the hell? They sure
    are taking a long way home.
[10:54] ---
    Ken-chan, you did it! Good for you!
[10:57] ---
    Hey, Keni--
[10:58] ---
    There, there. Let's not do anything
    tasteless now. We should just go home.
[11:05] ---
    Of course not! Even if
    it's a part of acting,
[11:09] ---
    I'll be too shy to
    actually do such a thing...
[11:12] ---
    What? So, you and Tanimoto-kun
    really didn't... you know, k-kiss?
[11:20] ---
    You only pretended that you did?
[11:21] ---
    Yesss! Thank goodness!
[11:29] ---
    I've been wondering about this
    for a while, but Kenichi-san, you--
[11:33] ---
    What?
[11:34] ---
    You have a particular
    fondness for that badge?
[11:37] ---
    Huh?
[11:39] ---
    Uh, well... This? Yeah, I guess so.
[11:43] ---
    That's the yin and yang from
    Chinese Taoist philosophy.
[11:48] ---
    Hmm... is that what it's called?
[11:51] ---
    A long time ago, I switched this
    with a badge with a kitty on it,
[11:54] ---
    at the neighborhood candy store.
[11:55] ---
    It's been so long, I don't really
    remember a lot about it though.
[11:58] ---
    But I've been wearing it
    for no particular reason.
[12:00] ---
    I see. It's a cool badge.
[12:02] ---
    So, what kind of meaning does it have?
[12:05] ---
    To put it simply,
[12:07] ---
    the idea is that
    everything in the world
[12:09] ---
    is based on the forces
    of "yin" and "yang."
[12:13] ---
    Light, positive force and movement
    are represented by the "yin,"
[12:16] ---
    and the darkness, negative force
[12:18] ---
    and silence,
    are represented by the "yang."
[12:21] ---
    I see.
[12:23] ---
    Oh, but there's a small
    white circle inside the black.
[12:28] ---
    You noticed a good point!
[12:30] ---
    You noticed a good point!
[12:30] ---
    "Wood" "Fire" "Earth" "Gold" "Water"
[12:31] ---
    Basically it means that
    there's light in the darkness,
[12:33] ---
    and there's darkness
    even in the light.
[12:36] ---
    Nothing is perfect, and everything
    is always interconnected.
[12:40] ---
    I see. I guess it's true.
[12:43] ---
    Even that evil Niijima does something
    good every once in a while.
[12:47] ---
    Yin and yang, huh?
    Tanimoto-kun, what's going on with you?
[12:57] ---
    Hey Kensei,
    what are you doing? Let's go!
[12:59] ---
    I thought they might kiss or something.
[13:32] ---
    Look out!
[13:38] ---
    Are you Ragnarok?
[13:39] ---
    Hermit.
[13:41] ---
    Hermit... The sixth greatest fist of
    the Ragnarok, who attacked Niijima!
[13:45] ---
    He's pretty good! Be careful!
[14:06] ---
    Kenichi-san!
[14:18] ---
    Oww...
[14:19] ---
    You're tough, aren't you?
[14:21] ---
    Answer me while you can still talk.
[14:24] ---
    The name of your master
    is Sogetsu Ma, correct?
[14:26] ---
    N-No, it's not!
[14:28] ---
    There's a man named "Ma"
    among my masters,
[14:30] ---
    but his name isn't "Sogetsu"!
    It's "Kensei"!
[14:33] ---
    Miu, what's going on?
[14:35] ---
    Kenichi-san has been pursued
    by the Ragnarok's master!
[14:38] ---
    Oh, that's true!
    They're on the top of the bus!
[14:41] ---
    He caught me off guard
    and I was too late to react.
[14:43] ---
    What should we do?
    I don't think Kenichi-san,
[14:46] ---
    as it stands right now,
    is any match for the guy.
[14:48] ---
    "Anmitsu"
[14:50] ---
    It's nothing but a kids' fight.
[14:52] ---
    I'm sure he'll come home
    when he gets hungry.
[14:54] ---
    Now, let's go home
    and have some anmitsu.
[14:57] ---
    Does it really look
    like a kids' fight to you?!
[15:00] ---
    Don't worry. Those two nosey
    people have been following them.
[15:05] ---
    What?
[15:12] ---
    Look at this.
[15:13] ---
    So you're concerned about your
    beloved disciple too, Sakaki-don?
[15:16] ---
    But you know, you shouldn't
    butt into your disciple's fight.
[15:19] ---
    D-Don't be stupid! I just suddenly
    felt like running a marathon.
[15:23] ---
    And at an incredible speed, too!
[15:26] ---
    You're a terrible liar.
[15:28] ---
    But, how come you're not
    chasing them on your motorcycle?
[15:31] ---
    It'll take me forever to start
    the engine on that piece of crap!
[15:34] ---
    After all, it's older than me, you know.
[15:39] ---
    I could've sworn that I saw
    the characteristics of my master,
[15:42] ---
    Sogetsu Ma, in your offensive moves.
[15:45] ---
    But I guess I was wrong.
[15:47] ---
    Why are you doing this?
    Is this an order from the Ragnarok?
[15:51] ---
    Why would you even risk
    your life to do stuff like this?
[15:54] ---
    I get so irritated by you!
    Look at those untainted eyes of yours!
[15:58] ---
    You seriously believe that
    there's justice in this world!
[16:01] ---
    I've always played the part of some
    character! So that I could live!
[16:06] ---
    The one, who's grown up
    in comfort all his life,
[16:08] ---
    tells me that the martial arts
    are for the sake of justice?
[16:10] ---
    Give me a break!
[16:13] ---
    Don't tell me you are--
[16:14] ---
    I have been playing
    a role in my life;
[16:16] ---
    to prepare to become the supreme
    ruler of both the visible world,
[16:18] ---
    and the underground world!
[16:20] ---
    Y-You are...
[16:22] ---
    ...Tanimoto-kun!
[16:25] ---
    He's gonna get me!
[16:29] ---
    He did that flip on the bus?
[16:34] ---
    I was going to wait to kill you
    until you got a little stronger,
[16:38] ---
    but I guess this is it.
[16:40] ---
    Your martial arts training is incomplete.
[16:42] ---
    You may have been trained by masters,
[16:44] ---
    but the bottom line is that
    you're nothing but an amateur.
[16:47] ---
    I'll show you the real Chinese kung fu!
[16:51] ---
    I'll show you the fists of the ruler!
[16:53] ---
    He's good... He's better than anyone
    I've ever fought against before...
[16:57] ---
    This is almost like fighting
    against the masters of Ryozanpaku!
[17:01] ---
    Where did I go wrong with my life?
[17:03] ---
    What's up with this situation anyway?
    We're on top of the bus for god's sake!
[17:06] ---
    Not only that, this is a moving bus!
[17:08] ---
    Tanimoto-kun, let's just get off this bus!
[17:11] ---
    At this rate we'll both fall and die!
[17:19] ---
    Dragon Palm Strike!
[17:25] ---
    What? That was Piguaquan!
[17:27] ---
    And it was a pretty
    advanced kung-fu movement!
[17:29] ---
    "Piguaquan"? Is that some
    kind of dangerous martial art?
[17:31] ---
    It's one of the most practical
    fighting styles in Chinese kung fu!
[17:36] ---
    One uses both arms
    like they were whips,
[17:38] ---
    and defeats the opponent before
    he has a chance to counterattack.
[17:41] ---
    It is indeed a masterly martial art!
[17:47] ---
    I-Incredible strikes!
    He dented the metal roof with it!
[17:51] ---
    What are his arms made of anyway?
[17:54] ---
    I can see he's also
    trained to send "chi" energy
[17:56] ---
    to his arms and
    turn his fists hard as steel!
[17:59] ---
    This is a problem!
[18:01] ---
    "Igonfu"
[18:07] ---
    Sakaki-don!
[18:08] ---
    I know! A master isn't supposed to
    butt into his disciple's fight, right?
[18:12] ---
    At this rate--
[18:13] ---
    Damn it!
[18:17] ---
    Die! Explosive Thunderbird Head Strike!
[18:31] ---
    Hey! Come on! It's dangerous
    to go for the back of the head!
[18:35] ---
    And you didn't even hold back!
[18:37] ---
    What's the deal with this guy?
[18:40] ---
    You're the first guy, who didn't
    collapse after getting hit by it!
[18:43] ---
    I see you've trained your
    neck to be strong and flexible.
[18:46] ---
    You'd better thank your
    masters for your life!
[18:51] ---
    That was a nice thing to say!
[18:52] ---
    Don't praise him!
[18:54] ---
    I yield to no one when it
    comes to taking a beating!
[18:58] ---
    But that one hit was
    truly intended to kill me!
[19:04] ---
    Let me tell you this one more time.
[19:06] ---
    It has nothing to do with Ragnarok.
[19:08] ---
    I will kill you simply
    because I don't like you.
[19:11] ---
    To me, Ragnarok is nothing
    but a temporary place to be!
[19:15] ---
    It's all just practice for me to rule
    the underground world eventually!
[19:19] ---
    Tell me something!
[19:20] ---
    What part of this is an act?
    I thought we had become friends!
[19:29] ---
    All of it, you fool! It's all
    been a lie from the very beginning!
[19:34] ---
    I was the one responsible for setting up
    those guys to attack the drama club.
[19:38] ---
    And I was also responsible
    for getting rid of them.
[19:42] ---
    And I got closer to Miu Furinji,
[19:43] ---
    as a way to become more
    popular in the visible world.
[19:48] ---
    "Friends," you said?
    Don't make me laugh!
[19:51] ---
    A ruler always seeks solitude
    and aims for the top!
[19:55] ---
    That's a lie!
[19:56] ---
    What?
[19:57] ---
    You're lying!
[19:58] ---
    I don't know why you think that way,
    but I can tell you this for sure.
[20:03] ---
    It's a lie that you're seeking solitude!
[20:05] ---
    Even when you asked me
    to help the drama club,
[20:08] ---
    even when you asked me
    to be your friend,
[20:11] ---
    I saw a sad light deep in your eyes!
[20:14] ---
    They were just like
    my eyes in the past!
[20:17] ---
    The eyes of loneliness!
[20:19] ---
    You need friends!
[20:24] ---
    You're strange.
[20:26] ---
    Let's just stop this.
[20:28] ---
    At least, let's get off this bus.
[20:30] ---
    Sure.
[20:33] ---
    Get off!
[20:39] ---
    You moron! What are
    you doing, falling for that?
[20:42] ---
    You softy!
[20:44] ---
    Tanimoto-kun!
[20:50] ---
    You fooled me again.
[20:52] ---
    But when I'm this close,
    the force of your strikes is half!
[20:55] ---
    That goes for your wrist, too!
[21:00] ---
    With your wrist?
[21:02] ---
    Now, an opponent with a strong neck
    would be able to withstand that hit.
[21:06] ---
    That's because you can't
    put full force into the hit
[21:08] ---
    because you're extremely
    close to the opponent.
[21:10] ---
    And your opponent would
    be thinking the same thing.
[21:12] ---
    However, that's exactly
    what you'd want to happen.
[21:20] ---
    What was that? A very
    powerful hit came from nowhere!
[21:24] ---
    The secret is this form.
[21:26] ---
    Once your hand is placed
    against your opponent's chin,
[21:28] ---
    you use your other
    hand to strike the elbow.
[21:30] ---
    The force of two hands is now
    behind the one hand that's in contact.
[21:34] ---
    Moreover, since your hand is already
    in contact with your opponent's chin,
[21:36] ---
    he isn't able to dodge the second hit.
[21:38] ---
    Take this! Master Ma's secret technique!
[21:56] ---
    That bastard! How could he do
    this to our precious disciple?
[22:03] ---
    I'm gonna make him pay for this!
[22:05] ---
    Stop it, Master Sakaki!
[22:06] ---
    Huh?
[22:07] ---
    He's right. Don't be childish.
[22:11] ---
    I have a feeling that I have
    to be the one who defeats him!
[22:15] ---
    Kenichi...
[22:26] ---
    Kensei, it sure is nice to
    see your disciple grow up, eh?
[22:30] ---
    Right, right.
[22:49] ---
    Knock it down with a high speed
[22:52] ---
    Open a new path, run through it
    with the brand new days in your hand
[23:05] ---
    Don't look back, get a chance
[23:08] ---
    There is no choice
    but to go on step by step
[23:11] ---
    Turn the pain into strength
[23:18] ---
    Don't be afraid! Let's start from here
[23:24] ---
    Go all out! You don't need a goal
[23:32] ---
    With the passionate soul that
    soars through the sky, yeah, yeah
[23:38] ---
    Come on, dance!
    Being ordinary isn't enough
[23:44] ---
    Unlock your dream!
    It sure will be a bright tomorrow
[23:51] ---
    That's right! Let it all
    hang out until you reach there
[24:07] ---
    Come on Ken-chan, I'll buy you
    some ramen, so just go home!
[24:11] ---
    I refuse!
[24:12] ---
    This is a personal issue for me.
    It doesn't concern my disciple.
[24:18] ---
    I said, I'm not going home! I'm not!
[24:20] ---
    Ken-chan, you sure are stubborn...
[24:22] ---
    There's no guarantee that
    you'll get out of this alive.
[24:25] ---
    I hope you're ready for this.
[24:27] ---
    As your disciple, it's only
    natural to stick with my master!
[24:30] ---
    No matter what happens,
    I will remain by your side.
[24:36] ---
